Sugar Bits - Amy's In-Laws Want You to Boycott Her Music

Amy Winehouse's concerned in-laws are asking that her fans boycott buying her records until she and her husband can get medical treatment for their drug addictions. At this point, we're in favor of any tactic that would prevent her from hurting herself any further. - BBC News

Matt LeBlanc's former manager of one year has filed a suit claiming that LeBlanc owes her around $1 million dollars for career advice she continued to give him after they parted ways. Sounds like she should've gotten a more iron-clad contract for those later years. - TMZ

Apparently Nick Hogan was cited earlier this month for speeding and driving without wearing his seat belt. We're hoping his accident from the other night was a wake up call for his reckless behavior. - The Smoking Gun

Oliver Hudson and his wife Erinn Bartlett welcomed their first son, Wilder Brooks, last Thursday. Congrats to the happy couple and their famous family! - E! Online

Danny DeVito will be the first guest on the upcoming season premiere of The View, where Whoopi will be making her official start as a regular host. Hopefully he spends the night before with Clooney and limoncello to make Whoopi's first show that much more interesting. - TMZ

I'm confused about the Matt Le Blanc story. So the manager was no longer working for him, and gave him career advice anyway, and now wants him to pay for it? If you're not working for someone, you can't make them pay you! It would have been different if she was employed by Le Blanc and he didn't pay her, but there's no a lot she can do if she wasn't even an employee!
As for boycotting Amy Winehouse-not a problem. I've never bought any of her music anyway!

Griffin... Please elaborate. In what way does Amy Winehouse embody "everything that is wrong with the recording industry today". Or is that just a grand statement one makes to sound like they are hip? :oy:

Put aside her wacky appearance & the fact that she's a drug addict and listen to her music...she really does have an amazing, deeply soulful voice. Her talent is going to waste because of drugs. I really hope she gets help fast before its too late.

hmmm . . . if everyone is going to boycott her music, then maybe everyone should boycott every lindsay lohan movie and the simple life (and whatever else paris does) cause they're not setting good examples for kids either.

That Winehouse chick is nasty. I would never buy her album anyways. I can barely look at her let alone listen to her. She is everything that is wrong with the recording industry today all rolled into one person.
